Nice to see you back from your solitary confinement, where you were banished for 72 hours!
Much chastened I find!

Does that work the other way for you? i.e. France and Russia opposed the War so they would not lose control of Iraq's oil. .Originally Posted by parihaka
"Above all, we must realize that no arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is so formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women. It is a weapon our adversaries in today's world do not have."
"The nine most terrifying words in the English language are, 'I'm from the government and I'm here to help.'"
NEVER FORGET
As I read through this, the example of Turkey keeps screaming that an Islamic Republic may not be the way to go.
To the Brigadier,
Was things any worst or better for India at Independence?

Lull,
You are right.
It is the garrot.
Give it to them also for their views.
They have sweetly taken all the cowshit.

Hindusim is a way out religion.
There is no rules or regulations. Pray if you wish, don't pray if you don't wish.
No going to a Temple on Sunday or Firday.
There are so many interpretations that even genuine HIndus don't know.
With that type of a ethos everything is fair game.
Hinduism has assimilated all religions excepting Islam. Not that they did not try. The Islam Empeoror Akhbar tried with his Din Ilahi where he wanted both religions assimilated. There were no takers from Islam. It is that Islam is beyond assimilation.
Therefore, in India after Independence, we decided that we must be secular.
We still are.
That is why we don't accept that because Kashmir Valley is Molem majority, it must go to Pakistan.
We are the second largest Moslem state in the world and we are proud of it.

If they had helpeed to liberate the Iraqis, then the Iraqis would have let them keep their contracts. They thought the US was bluffing, and that they could keep their puppet, they bet on the wrong hand...Originally Posted by parihaka

I agree completely with this Administration’s goal of a regime change in Iraq-John Kerry
even if that enforcement is mostly at the hands of the United States, a right we retain even if the Security Council fails to act-John Kerry
He may even miscalculate and slide these weapons off to terrorist groups to invite them to be a surrogate to use them against the United States. It’s the miscalculation that poses the greatest threat-John Kerry

We have veered off topic.
If US does withdraw now, what happens?
It is to me not in anyone's interest, except Iran and the Islamists.
US would then create the very Frankenstein that it wanted to bring down.
Saddam kicked the Islamists in their butt and Iraq was the only haven of secularists in Islamist Arabia (including Wahabis deviates) and that has gone. Sistani will win and Iran will become more pwoerful.
An intersting situation.
Could be a a deep plot to have Sunnis fight Shias? That would be a real political and strategic coup!
